Connecticut Memories

Aura writes, "This map of the town where I grew up in Connecticut is drawn entirely from memory. While drawing, I realized that I would not have been able to remember nearly as much detail about my surroundings had my neighborhood journeys relied on the regular use of a GPS device (like many of us use today). The map is not drawn to scale, but I did attempt to convey a sense of distance by indicating the length of time it would take me to drive to the places of my childhood that I chose to include on the map."
